Description
Carnigrass takes the form of a field of tall wild grass, or possibly a lawn if charmed by a wizard or planted and trimmed by a herbalist. It is a plant monster, however, that will attack and eat anyone foolish enough to set foot on it. Most anyone is foolish enough, since it just looks like normal grass, but careful travellers will notice it beforehand and avoid it.
Carnigrass goes to seed after it has eaten several adventurers. Somewhere else, several more Carnigrass spring up, their dandelion-looking seeds eaten by birds and fish and spiders, but a few make it to populate more Carnigrass, spreading like a weed.
